What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo determine the association between vitamin D status and the serum lipid profile in children.
methodsThe subjects of this cross-sectional study were 149 Spanish school children (8-13 years of age). The anthropometric data collected were weight and height, from which the body mass index (BMI) was calculated. Serum 25(OH)D concentrations were measured by chemiluminescent assay. Triglycerides were determined by enzyme colorimetry; total cholesterol and HDL-cholesterol were determined by the cholesterol esterase method. The LDL-cholesterol concentrations were determined mathematically.
resultsCompared to children with serum 25(OH)D concentrations in the fourth quartile, those in the first had higher triglyceride (86.0 ± 35.7 vs. 64.1 ± 26.7 mg/dL; p < 0.05). After adjusting for age, sex, BMI, and physical activity, the serum 25(OH)D level was found to be inversely proportional to the triglyceride (r = -0.857; p = 0.010). While age, sex, BMI, and physical activity explained 12% of the variance of the HDL-cholesterol figures, the inclusion of serum 25(OH)D allowed 23% of the variance to be explained.
conclusionA low serum vitamin D levels in children is associated with high triglyceride levels.
